Not a special beer, but has its place. Light in color and flavor, a decent choice as a palate clenser on a hot day or with spicy food.

Rated 7/29/07. Draft at Hofbräuhaus in Las Vegas, NV. Translucent golden body with a huge white head that leaves behind excellent lacing. Much like the Hofbräu Dunkel, this beer has a fruity, floral, yeasty smell. The flavor is grainy, with straw and hay laying the groundwork for light floral highlights. The body is thin and watery, making it easy to drink but not particularly appealing. It is what it is, a simplistic session beer.
